usually plays misfits and bad guys on TV and in movies -- but he became a real-life hero this weekend ... rescuing a neighbor and her kids after a home invasion.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the actor -- famous from"Kingdom,""Hostage,""The Ruins," and other shows/films -- called 911 Sunday evening to report a suspicious man who was going around banging on doors and talking to himself in his L.A. neighborhood.We're told after Jon got off the phone with cops, he went outside after losing sight of the guy -- and when he got out there ...
Soon enough, he led them to safety ... walking out of the house with the girl in his arms, and mom and other kid close behind. He got them far away from the house, and cops showed up within minutes, including a police helicopter. They went in and found the dude, placing him in custody. Law enforcement sources tell us the man was placed on a 5150 hold.
In terms of why he decided to spring into action ... Jonathan's camp tells us he simply wanted to do what he hopes someone would do for him and his family in the exact same situation. We're also told Jonathan considers the cops to be the real heroes here.
